New Business Growth Service launched
A new Business Growth Service has been launched that is designed to help businesses across the UK to get quicker and easier help, support and advice.
The new service has been initiated in response to small businesses finding the business support landscape fragmented and complex. Only 26% of UK SME employers reported that they sought external advice or information in 2023.
The Business Growth Service will develop a revamped web offering that will launch in the first half of 2025. This will be developed and will work in partnership with small businesses as well as governments, local and devolved, across the UK to try and ensure that the service will provide the information and resources that smaller businesses need from government.
It is estimated that a small business owner, on average, spends over 33 hours each month on internal business admin. The service aims to help decrease this time by providing practical help to small businesses.
